I respectfully say to you, sir

You, sir, are wrong. The baby fox is cute. Yes. But you must bow down before the cute overlord that is the red panda. You just must. We made a pilgrimage yesterday, and were only able to see it sleeping in a tree. Our cute overlord kept us at a distance. I suppose it was because we hadn't made the proper sacrificial chicken blood ritual. Or it was sleepy. But seriously- see the pictures. Baby fox- cute. Red panda- the cutest animal IN THE WORLD.

We also saw the second cutest animal in the world. It is a kind of desert fox- not Rommel. But much, much cuter, and not German in the least. I forget the real name for him, but he was cute. And agitated by the small children who were waving things at him and shouting- despite it being a "quiet zone" at the zoo. I don't quite know who the misguided genius is who decides that there can ever be "quiet zones" at the zoo- what with the 700 small and medium sized children running rampant throughout the place- it was rife with them.

I'll also post a picture of the ghostly Mika. He was hiding under the sheer curtain, and was very dramatic. Scary, no? OOOOOOHHHHH- Mika's gonna get you!!! OOOOHHHHHHH!!!!! And if you saw him without the scrim, you would notice the alarming similarity between his dirty white fur and that of a Mountain Goat. Disgusting. Ratty little beast...who bitches when we clean him up.
